Page 4, The Daily Review, Morgan City, La., Friday, March 5, 2021 Opinion/Editorial South Louisiana should really have town named 'Bailey' By JIM BRADSHAW You have probably never heard of G. W. R. Bailey, but his think- ing and influence were crucial to the decision of where lots of people in south Louisiana live. As the chief civil engineer for Morgan’s Lou- isiana and Texas Railroad, he decided where the tracks would go, and that dictated where new towns would be built. The New Orleans, Opelousas and Great Western railroad had reached from Algiers, across the river from New Orleans, to Brashear City (as Morgan City was then called) in 1857, but the line went no farther. Its builders ran out of money, and the Civil War erupted before they could raise enough to lay more track. For several years the company kept alive its hopes to run the rails across southwest Louisiana and link at the Sabine River with a line running from Houston. But the war dealt a fatal blow to the plan and the railroad company itself. After the war, shipping magnate Charles Morgan bought the ru- ins of the railroad from a bankruptcy court. His idea was to run trains from New Orleans to Berwick Bay, which was deep enough for his steamships that traded with Galveston and other ports in Texas and Mexico. By using Berwick Bay as a terminal, he could avoid the long trip up and down the Mississippi River to New Orle- With CPAC speech, Trump ans, as well as the city’s expensive wharfage fees, and also the inter- ruptions caused by regular yellow fever quarantines blocking goods and people from the city. proved he'll be political force When Bailey became Morgan’s chief engineer his first job was to get trains and steamboats connected at Berwick Bay, but then he By BRETT KIMBALL the Biden team’s annihilation of tens-of-thousands began to look again at the old scheme to take the rails to Texas — Former President Donald Trump made his of jobs for middle class Americans.

John Bel Edwards said. “It was launched to boost workforce development and education and to provide financial opportunities for Louisiana’s content creators. We con- gratulate NOVAC and IATSE as they expand their efforts to prepare Louisi- ana residents for the quality jobs being created in our entertainment industry.” Training will target a variety of motion picture production jobs, including art department (construction, paint, set decorating, props and art direction), grip and electrics, costumes, craft services, set medics, video assistance, accounting and script supervisors. Sessions are expected to include both online courses and in-person training at a variety of sites. The program will follow all current industry safety protocols, including COVID-19 testing prior to in-person sessions, social distancing, mask requirements and proper cleaning and sanitiz- ing of facilities. “The entertainment industry in Loui- siana is significant,” Pierson said. “We value these employment opportunities for our residents. With the Entertain- ment Development Fund, we can more significantly invest in workforce training and education for new or existing candidates for these entertainment jobs. They are well-paying and available to those persons who have trained in the entertainment industry, or those who are now pivoting to entertainment as a new ca- reer. From several different perspectives, this is an exceptional opportunity." At the conclusion of the training sessions, NOVAC will assist participants with job placement on Louisiana motion picture productions. “In partnership with IATSE Local 478, NOVAC will use the Louisiana En- Nursing homes see sharp drop in COVID positives tertainment Development Fund to train 165 participants to work in various de- The American Health Care Associa- are working. “We still have a long road ahead, but partments on film sets,” NOVAC Execu- tion and National Center for Assisted Recent CMS data shows that nursing these numbers are incredibly encourag- tive Director India King Robins said.
